After several attempts, and despite killing several fish monsters, they were unable to get close to the fish monster's lair. Su Rui and Shi Yi had no choice but to retreat, intending to find another way to fight their way back. Most of the fish monsters stayed near the fish nest, while a small number of them came out to pursue Su Rui and the others. They fought their way back and finally retreated to the coral reef area two miles away, where they repelled the pursuing fish monsters.
The fish demon didn't look powerful, but after a fight, both of them had consumed a lot of their true energy. The key was that their large fish dragon spreading formation, which could teleport people away, was too difficult to deal with. Once surrounded, they would be teleported away before they could even break the formation.
The two men were so angry at the fight that they took it out on the big lobsters hiding in the coral reefs. They killed more than a dozen lobsters as thick as their arms before they stopped.
They did not waste the big lobsters that were killed. They took them all to the spirit fish shuttle and grilled them for food.
"Shitou, that group of fish monsters is not easy to deal with. I will use my secret method to transform into the appearance of a fish monster and sneak in to see if there is any treasure. If there is any treasure, I will create chaos and you can fight your way in. How about that?"
After the two men calmed down and filled their stomachs, they began to discuss a plan to enter the fish monster's lair.
"Erlang, I've mastered the Five Escapes Techniques through the Heavenly Ghost Secrets I practiced before setting out, so I can also sneak in stealthily. Since the open approach won't work, let's try it covertly and sneak in directly!"
The two were discussing when Su Rui suddenly sensed a dark shadow in the coral reef quietly approaching the Spirit Fish Shuttle. He immediately glanced at Shi Yi and shot out a thunderous sword energy towards the place where the dark shadow was hiding.
clang……
A crisp sound was heard, and Su Rui immediately sensed the shadow's startled movement, breaking through the water and moving away. Su Rui and Shi Yi immediately summoned their respective magic weapons to take precautions. The shadow had been able to block Su Rui's lightning-charged sword energy without warning, and its strength should not be underestimated.
A mile away, a figure emerged from the water. Su Rui had cultivated the "Mori Golden Light Pupil," and could clearly see things three miles away, not just one.
The figure breaking through the water came into view. It was a lobster monster covered in green armor. Its transformation level was very high, and its appearance was basically the same as that of a human. It had a lobster crown with huge spikes on its head. It was eight or nine feet tall, and was covered in azure green armor with only its eyes and mouth exposed. It held a spear in one hand and kept a lobster claw in the other hand.
Su Rui and Shi Yi were both seasoned cultivators. The moment they saw the lobster monster break the water, they exchanged a glance. They both saw the same message in each other's eyes: this lobster monster was no simple matter; they had to go all out.
The lobster monster's eyes were filled with anger and resentment. First, a strong stream of water vapor spurted out of its mouth and roared at Shi Yi and Su Rui: "You two human cultivators have trespassed into my territory without reason and killed my son. Just wait until I report to the Azure Dragon King and I will avenge you!"
Its voice was filled with venom and hatred, as if it wanted to tear Shi Yi and Su Rui into pieces. In response, Shi Yi shot out a black sword light and Su Rui shot out lightning scales from his forehead.
The lobster monster seemed prepared. It tapped the water with its spear, and instantly a massive wave surged up, forming a massive wall of water that obscured its presence. The water wall rippled violently under the impact of the two sword beams, but it remained intact, like a solid barrier, shielding the lobster monster from view.
By the time the waves subsided, the lobster monster had long disappeared from the coral reef.
Su Rui sighed. The situation in the sea seemed a bit complicated. He would easily provoke the sirens entrenched in various sea areas.
However, he wasn't worried. The South China Sea was so vast, he didn't believe the lobster monster and the Azure Dragon King could find them in the vast ocean! Besides, even if they did, the two of them combined wouldn't be a match for these sea monsters. At worst, they could just board the Spirit Fish Shuttle and flee!
Shi Yize put away his flying sword and calmly took a sea turtle that he had picked up from somewhere and helped it remove the barnacles on its back. He did not take the threat of the lobster monster seriously at all.
The two men rested for a while, and after their true energy was fully restored, they immediately prepared to attack the group of three-spined mackerel monsters again.
Su Rui took out the fish demon's soul and blood essence he had prepared and refined them into the Yuan Shen illusion. Quickly, by fusing the soul and blood essence of the three-spined mackerel snake demon, he transformed into a three-spined mackerel snake demon, complete in form and spirit. Shi Yi, watching from the side, couldn't help but be astonished by this move. If Su Rui hadn't restrained his aura, Shi Yi might have drawn his sword and killed it!
He looked at Su Rui and said, "Your transformation technique is truly amazing. If I hadn't known it was you, Erlang, who transformed, I would have thought it was a real fish demon."
Su Rui's voice came from the fish demon's mouth. He chuckled and said, "This is nothing. Once I find the mirage dragon's blood, it's not impossible for me to transform into a dragon!"
Shi Yi shook his head. Transforming into a dragon wasn't easy. There were tens of thousands of demon cultivators in this world who wanted to become dragons, but only a handful had managed to do so in the past hundred years. And after transforming into a dragon, it was difficult to stay in the human world. Forcing oneself to stay would result in severe suppression.
"I'm going over first. You better keep an eye on me and don't draw your sword at me!"
After saying that, Su Rui jumped into the sea, awkwardly fiddling with his fins and tail, and swam towards the group of three-spined mackerel monsters.
Shi Yi also jumped out of the Spirit Fish Shuttle. After taking it back, he immediately changed his body shape and turned into a big bald ghost child with a green face and fangs. He had dark eye circles, golden-red pupils, and a pair of huge sharp claws. If you didn't look closely, he was actually somewhat similar to the water monkey.
But it was much more powerful than the water monkey. Looking at Su Rui's figure getting farther and farther away, its figure immediately disappeared and turned into a ball of transparent water. It quickly caught up with Su Rui and rushed towards the nest of the three-spined mackerel snake monster.
A well-proportioned three-spined snake mackerel with a black spot between its eyebrows emerged from the dense water plants, blowing bubbles and leisurely joining the other three-spined snake mackerel. Beneath the fish, a stream of transparent water lingered, making it look as if the fish were riding the waves. Yes, they were Su Rui and Shi Yi, after their transformed forms. They had finally blended into the group of fish monsters without alerting each other.
"Where have you been? Why are you back just now?" An angry voice suddenly appeared in Su Rui's ears, almost scaring him. Looking up, he saw a fat three-spined mackerel demon staring at him and talking.
Through the memory fragments in the fish monster's soul, Su Rui saw that this angry fish monster was the brother of the fish monster it transformed into.
"I... I went after those two damned human cultivators. On the way back, I felt hungry, so I went looking for food..." Su Rui feigned timidity, responding in the unique communication style of the three-spined mackerel. Fortunately, the Yuan Shen illusion technique was advanced enough, and it also inherited the memories and bloodline of the transformed person, otherwise it would have been exposed if it wasn't careful!
"Hmph, now that you're full, go to the commander's seat and listen to his orders!" The voice ordered with a tone of disappointment.
